Barry and I got to go to Ivie again Jun 7 and 8th. We checked in to Elm Creek Village Thursday afternoon about 2:30 put our stuff in our room and started fishing. This trip did not have the big bass bites like the last 2 trips. We started off fishing a windless Thursday afternoon, but that was short lived and the wind kicked up with a vengeance. We managed 3 fish each on Thursday afternoon. When evening came we got out the lights and keep on fishing. As I was going down a rock ledge I noticed a Bobcat come out beside me and get a drink. It's amazing how close you can get to wild life in a kayak. They don't seem to even notice you till you are very close. I chose not to get real close to the Bobcat but watched him till he finished drinking and walk off. On Friday we skipped breakfast and got a 5:30 am start. The bass were schooling with some nice sized fish mixed in. We could not buy a bite out of the schools. I finally had some luck just drifting with a Flip Tail Lizard. Nothing like our previous trip but, that one will be hard to top. We took a break about 1:30ish did a quick load of kayaks and ran up to Elm Creek and had burgers fries and Large tea. Have I mentioned that they make a great burger? We continued to fish till about 10 PM (lights were out) then loaded up and drove home to Ft Worth. Got in sore and tired but we both had a great time. For the whole trip we managed 25 bass 2 smallies and spied a nice bobcat.
